Can you provide a long of your wireless-testing run with the group key
patch applied? Also, please try running wpa_supplicant manually, but
first be sure to disable Network Manager completely by doing:

# Red Hat based systems
sudo /sbin/service NetworkMananger stop
# Debian based systems (Ubuntu is one)
sudo /etc/init.d/NetworkManager stop
sudo killall -TERM wpa_supplicant
